It's basically "oh hey we gave away this whole set, so let's force people to recycle it for bad cards".

It's the same old bullsh!t that Alteil always does--create some sort of knee-jerk reaction spending event so people empty out their gran savings before doing the same thing again--and again--and again.

Romdeau said in chat that Logress is afraid that if he tries any new model that spending will drop and that the game will go under. So we're stuck. And in the meantime, management really isn't being accountable to the player base because there's enough spending to keep the game afloat...at least for the current timeframe.

The big issue though is that the game is so unfriendly towards new players that the vets will continue to play in an increasingly irrelevant sandbox.

Yeah, I noticed it too. Luckily I still had a good amount of gran saved so I'm in a somewhat okay standing to get the one I want. Maybe Christmas/New Years presents (if there are any) will make it easier.

First of all: during the last years people were allways complaining how slow the releases are: Isnt the consequence of faster releases not that you will have less time to buy Ex sets?

second: I dont think this is a new development. Its just simplyy that due to the transfer and the gap between the rerelease the usual time schedule got messed up.I am not surprised at all thast such things happen.

I think it is because they effectively gave us a huge amount of free gran for anyone who got 3 copies of set 11. Even those with 12 copies got a lot of free gran.

3copies set 11

5stars;4*3*300=3600gran

4 stars; 4*3*150=1800gran

3 stars15*3*30=1350gran

2 stars15*3*10=450gran

1stars20*3*5=300gran

Total free gran = 7500 gran

If you recycle anything I recommend recycling 5stars you do not use if there is a great promotion like 500 gran prebuilts or great ex's. Even though people recommend not recycling high rarity cards I think it is better trade to lose a few cards to get many more. Recyling all 5 stars(12cards) will get 3600 gran whereas recycling all other cards (162cards) will get only 3900 gran and negatively affect your card pool and options much more. Therefore in general never recylce cards 3star and below of less than 3 copies.

On top of this now there is no -1gran for losing games apparently and it is permanent so allows people to get much more weekly gran.

Plus the usual 1-30gran normally 5-15 usually 10 gran every day from mirage master.
